Are there any recommendations for multiport serial cards for use with FreeBSD? Would anyone please relay good or bad experiences with any products under FreeBSD? One of my options is to purchase a couple of Aurora ISA or PCI cards (replacing the Sbus cards and the Suns) and use them with the existing Aurora hardware that I've got. Does anyone have any FreeBSD experience with this configuration. Does it work? Any pointers would be muchly appreciated.
